Favorite Classical Piece: "Meditation" from "Thais" by Massanet (Currently Playing) Special Item: Orb of Light Philosophy: "Life is wonderful, and we can even further improve it." Level Of Optimism (10 being the most optimistic): 10 - See full chart Kira was the first to know of her destiny. She, along with five others, is part of a fated group known as the Six. Kira must fight a nearly-invincible evil with the other predestined members in a continuing battle that has been raging for centuries. To fight her battles, Kira must use the mythical talisman she has been given: the Orb of Light. Kira is a spirit of true and eternal optimism and idealism. She never gives up on the idea that maybe, she and her companions can be the first to completely destroy the ever-present darkness that threatens Earth. Much to the dismay of her incredibly-negative alter-ego, Melanthe, her views are solid and immutable. It is Kira's undying passions that Hope, the main character and bearer of the Orb of Earth, tries ceaselessly to copy. It is a struggle for Hope to maintain a cheerful composure, but through it all Kira remains, a kind of warm glow that never leaves Hope's side. She is a generous and caring friend, virtuous and pure. Her great philosophies and beliefs in truth and love inspire Hope, although they, too, confuse her as to what is really real and right. Like everyone else, though, Kira has her faults, even if they are not immediately recognizable... Kira continually reminds Hope of the glimmer of the light immeasurably far in the distance, ahead of their sorrow and pain. But will her fanciful ideas ever come about, or are they mere illusions? It's all up to Hope... Back to the character profile page...
